Diary of a Minecraft Creeper, Book 1

Seeing the world from a Creeper's point of view made me wonder if there's more to their story than just explosions. Did anyone else find themselves rooting for this little character?

The format made the story feel personal and funny, but I wonder if the author based this on any real Creeper traits or just imagined it for humor.

Most Creepers are seen as monsters, but this one had a lot of heart and humor. Did anyone else find themselves empathizing with this explosive character?
